U.S. Embassy in India warns students: 'Breaking laws could cost your visa'
New Delhi/IBNS: The U.S. Embassy in India has issued a stern reminder to students and exchange visitors that breaking American laws could lead to the immediate revocation of their visas, deportation, and ineligibility for future entry.
“Breaking U.S. laws can have serious consequences for your student visa… A U.S. visa is a privilege, not a right,” the Embassy wrote in a social media advisory, urging applicants to strictly adhere to rules while studying or staying in the country.
The message comes at a time when the Trump administration has intensified scrutiny of foreign students and visa-holders, echoing the President’s hardline stance on immigration and law enforcement.
Officials have reiterated that the U.S. will continue prioritising security and compliance, a policy that has impacted large numbers of Indian students in recent years.
India remains one of the largest sources of international students in the U.S., with over 250,000 enrolled annually, making such advisories particularly significant.
